Chrissy Quilt finally finished

Have been working tirelessly over the last 4 days to finally finish my
2010 Christmas Design
Christmas Magic





we took the quilt to the park to take photos but the wind won
This quilt is pieced 4 1/2" squares which has three "Christmas Balls" hanging down from bias strips. The balls are stitchery's of Country Harts busy Riendeers, playing in the snow, looking after Santas mail and decorating the tree.There are alos some stitchery;s of presents and little Christmas sayings in some of the blocks.
The second border has been stitched in the beautiful Cottage Garden Thread and reads "With all letters sent & tree lights all bright we suggle down to sleep for the night"
I then hand quilted the quilt using perle 8. Oh nearly forgot there is some applique with the sliegh at the bottom of the quilt
You can check the details of the quilt out at


or drop into the shop or you could get your fav patchwork shop to get the pattern in for you
Christmas Magic will be available this week both as a pattern or a kit

here is some pics of the stitchery's

Relay for Life




In April of 2011 I will be part of a Relay for Life Team called
Wornout Housewives
raising much needed funds for the Cancer Council

Will will be taking part in a 24hour relay where we will have to keep our baton moving around Memorial Oval in Port Pirie SA for the full 24 hours, each lap i do I know that my Dad will be walking with me, I lost my Dad to Brain Cancer 11 years ago and still miss him everyday

We have lots of events in the planning along with a Quilt which will be auctioned(more on that one as the quilt takes shape.

I will also be donating $4.00 of every Country Hart Goodie Bag Pattern sold to our fundraising
